Yeah, thats what I've been doing, but its a pain in the arse. Have to keep looking at the diagram to be sure that I'm adjusting the correct pot. Just makes an already tedious job that much more tedious.

Jeremy, if I didn't need it for my CP-65 I'd sell you mine. [Smile]

I had another one that I think I sold here on F-T some years ago.

I guess I'm going to have to make a new version of one of these. I have a very streamlined version made for me many years ago that does all the essential tasks including an EQ bypass switch so you can quickly determine what the last Bozo, er, tech did for EQ before re-doing all his work, and it takes very little space.

That would be awesome Sam!

I spoken with Dick Niccum at LIT last year and he had made a batch of 25 Cat 67's based on the sample card he was given, but they were for the Dolby magnetic pre amplifiers. So if anybody needs one of those, I'm sure he probably has a few left. Last he told me was that he was looking for a sample of the cat 67 for the 55/65.

Jeremy, Dick is slightly wrong, it is a CAT 92x extender for the mag preamps. [Smile] His memory is slipping..but still a great guy and good resource for cinema stuff.

I also just remembered you did me a big favor with the Dolby Digital trailers, so if you need to borrow my CAT 67 send a PM and we can iron out the details. [Big Grin]

I do it the way Louis does it. I was taught that method by a man from Massachusets whose name we are not allowed to mention here. Works well... touch ups on L & R are sometmies required after words.
I still have my C.E. PN card as well as my CAT 67 extender from 1985! I think the SN on my PN card is something like #27...
